California has significantly relaxed ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) regulations in recent years, creating an excellent opportunity for homeowners to add living space or generate rental income. HOME LINK INC specializes in all types of ADU projects across Los Angeles — from detached new builds to garage conversions — delivering full-cycle professional services.

We have in-depth knowledge of ADU regulations across the City of Los Angeles and its surrounding jurisdictions, including size limits, setback requirements, and parking exemptions. We ensure full code compliance from the design phase, avoiding permit rejections and costly revisions — keeping your ADU project on track.

Whether you're building a "Granny Flat" for aging parents, creating independent space for adult children, or adding a rental unit for passive income — we tailor solutions to your needs and budget.

ADU Addition FAQs

Can I build an ADU on my property?
California law has significantly relaxed ADU restrictions, and the vast majority of single-family residential lots are eligible. We offer a free lot assessment to confirm your allowable build area, setback requirements, and optimal placement options.
Are there size and height limits for an ADU?
Under current regulations, a detached ADU can be up to 1,200 sq ft or equal to the primary dwelling's area (whichever is smaller). An attached or garage conversion ADU can be up to 50% of the primary dwelling's area (capped at 1,200 sq ft). Height limits vary by city — most allow two stories. We will identify the exact compliant parameters for your property.
Does a garage conversion ADU require a complete rebuild?
Not necessarily. If the existing garage structure is sound, you can convert it by modifying the interior and installing plumbing and electrical systems — at a fraction of the cost of new construction. However, if the garage is severely deteriorated or too small, demolition and new construction may be more cost-effective. We'll provide a professional recommendation after the on-site assessment.
How long does an ADU project take?
From design to delivery, an ADU project typically takes 4–8 months. The design and permitting phase takes approximately 2–3 months, and construction takes 2–5 months. Prefabricated ADU solutions can shorten the timeline to 3–4 months. We provide a detailed schedule at project kickoff.
